Appreciate the thoughts guys. .5mg a week is an insane dose of arimidex?

I was wondering if anyone was doing daily AI "micro" doses with daily shots. I was using .25mg once or twice a week with the whopping 200mg weekly dose of test cyp, that kept it down in the 30's I think. Half a tab (.5) just felt like a little too much at once for me. Ups & downs for sure.

I think I do. Mood is little huffy at that high perhaps. I expected it to be lower. It wasn't nearly that high with 200mg once weekly shot. Dhea prob jacking it up but again it seems to make a really big difference in my breathing.

Been trying daily shots T-cyp at ~16mg/day. Skipped the .25-.5mg arimidex during this period to see the results. Also using dhea at 25mg/day. I would've dropped the dhea, but really seems to help with chronic sinusitis/rhinitis. Did this for about 6wks and ran labs. Didn't realize E2 was so...

Again, I have recently increased to 62.5ug after using 50 for many years. It seems I may want to take that higher. Trying to get a feel for what an increase would do.

So as long as ft3 is decent the rest is pointless?

About 6wks ago increased levothyroxine from 50 to 62.5ug

Old thread I know, but I am really tired of waking every night by 4am & then using theanine, tryptophan(if earlier) glycine, taurine, gaba etc, etc to not be up for an hour or more. Benzos will keep me asleep for 7hrs but I'm not going to use those more than twice a week. I tried seriphos years...

Thought so. Thanks SL!

Is there a significant peak/trough with daily shots of T-Cyp? TIA

Tell me if I'm mistaken, but I thought I saw accounts of boron lowering e2 and also accounts of boron raising e2? Just started taking it again for arthritis and feels like dht may be up. Wouldn't raising dht maybe lower e2?

Amazing how little info there is about boron. I came up with that same article about it being boring. I took it a few times in the past and definitely felt a little agitated. I'm trying it again as hand arthritis is really prevalent lately. Thanks as always Vince.

I've recently switched from a "T clinic" to a urologist. With this I've changed from weekly Cyp. injections to daily. He's pretty by the book and will be wanting my levels in the "normal" range. I like mine prob a little higher. Long story shorter, I'm curious how levels roll down after stopping...

Pretty tricky taking the human body off auto pilot sometimes. Haha

Labs on the thyroid. Understand about maybe not top end values for everything being better. I do like the idea of improving when possible. It's been awhile in the thyroid labs and the doc is great but does believe within range is "not sick". If I could feel noticeably better I would pursue it.

Thanks, just seemed in the lower end. I'm hypothyroid too.

Should I supplement?

Thanks FO

It was like 6 weeks with weekly shots to reach "steady state", how long on daily shots?

400 at trough. That might be 1000? at peak. My trough might be 1000 right now, & it's not great. I'm thinking you can run those high levels for awhile & do good, but at some point adaptations occur & again not all that great.

No, no 400 total T at weekly trough was his stated goal. Thanks Cataceous that does look exactly like what I was looking for.

Thanks SL have read many of your thoughts. Did some googling, pretty hard to find many anecdotes as to the downside of supraphysiological test levels with specific reference to mood, sexual cons. Was even searching for stories from bodybuilders who did high levels for long periods of time. I ask...

Start by saying I have labs with new urologist next week. I've been with a low T clinic for quite awhile(years) & have done fairly well with weekly injects of 200mg+ My levels read prob 1000 at trough, I know some guys have done this and reported they definitely felt better at lower doses...

Anyone know of a good maybe excel template for tracking dose vs labs?

Availability was one clinic visit a week for one shot. I will now be self injecting so hoping for a more steady level. But yes, experimenting I suppose.

Prob discussed numerous times but search didn't reveal. I'm about to go from once weekly test cyp inject to twice weekly. What can i expect?

Thanks everyone

Thanks. I was searching andrology/ists mostly see fertility care. You would think trt not great for that. haha

Thanks SL. What Dr does this then? Endocrinologist? Urologist? The uhc app has a list of sports medicine docs and family docs but the few I reached out to acted like they had no idea what I was taking about.

I'm 62 and have been on trt for almost 6 years. UHC has covered weekly shots at the local clinic with no copay. Just pay for labs and extras. However, last week it was noted that I would have to see a provider every visit now. This costs $45 a week. I'm looking for options. Sent an email to my...

I really like what preg does for me, but find it lasts for a day or two then seems to almost rebound in some way. I'm trying to see if I could use it at some interval like weekly.
